The COLT is a high-technology observer team designed to maximize the use of smart munitions. Although originally conceived to interface with the Copperhead, a COLT can be used with any munition that requires reflected laser energy for final ballistic guidance. Thus, at present, the team can also lase for smart munitions delivered by Air Force and Army aircraft. Within the light forces structure, the team is composed of two soldiers equipped with a G/VLLD and the necessary mobility and communications assets. COLTs can also be used as independent observers to weight key or vulnerable areas. By use of the self-location and target-ranging capabilities of the G/VLLD, first-round FFE with conventional munitions can be achieved.
